I set this up the other day for some tables in MKDoc 1.8 (we must
set up viewcvs or something...), this is a extract from the
audience_list template, it's basically a matter of repeating the
row, this has the advantage that when you view the file in a browser
or WYSIWYG editor you get to see two different rows, one thing that
I don't know how to avoid is the ugly div that has to be omitted:

  <table>
    <div
      petal:omit-tag=""
      petal:repeat="audience self/audiences"
    >
      <!--? The odd row comes before the even row ?-->
      <tr 
        class="odd"
        petal:condition="true: repeat/odd"
      >
        <td>
          <!-- stuff here -->
        </td>
      </tr>
      <!--? The even row comes after the odd row ?-->
      <tr 
        class="even"
        petal:condition="true: repeat/even"
      >
        <td> 
          <!-- stuff here -->
        </td>
      </tr>
    </div>
  </table>

This example should be added to Petal POD -- there isn't an example
like this documented anywhere.
